True, there is a test point.  And you can tune the two capacitors and
stretch/squeeze the coil for a minimum as the instructions state.  But
I don't believe this is the best way.

As Jeff WN3A and others have written, the best way is to monitor the
output and current draw, tuning for maximum out along with minimum
current.  Best efficiency.  By tuning this way, I've reduced current
draw from 15.5 amps with the GE method to 12.5 amps, with the same PO.
